A Sudden Distraction
Just as I’m about to call him and demand answers, the unexpected sound of the doorbell jolts me from my thoughts. It’s a mundane noise, yet in this moment, it feels ominous. When I open the door, a deliveryman stands there holding a package addressed to my husband. My stomach twists as I accept it — what could possibly be inside?
I bring the package into the house, hands trembling with a mix of suspicion and adrenaline. It’s a simple brown box, unassuming and silent, but something about it feels significant. I stare at it for a moment before setting it on the table. This might be the key I’ve been waiting for — a crack in the wall of secrets he’s built. My curiosity takes over, stronger than my hesitation.
